Radish (Raphanus sativus)

  • It is necessary that enough soil moisture is available to help uniform seed germination and growth of plant.
  • Thinning may be done at 10 cm distance as in carrot.
  • Weeding should be done at regular intervals to keep down weeds.
  • Shallow hoeing is necessary to facilitate root growth.
  • When the roots start growing, earthing up should be done.
